You've got to be noirer than Noir you are
You've got to be fleet on your feet
You've got to be discreetly alone

You've got to be cool as the frost
Eliminate the dust
Alone on the phone to yourself
Who else can you trust?
If you don't know what you're there for
You'll never know what you're here for
And the sunlight wears you down

You've got to be noirer than Noir voila!
You never could say au revoir comme ça

If it was easy to love you
Wouldn't everyone love you?
I wouldn't bother doing anything at all
Unless I had to
I wouldn't bother doing anything at all

You've got to be noirer than Noir c'est ça
Vampire oh vampire oh vampire
Are you my dad?

The darkest thoughts in your head
Are crawling into your bed
And the sunlight wears you down

Oooh ooh noirer than Noir
Oooh ooh noirer than Noir
Oooh ooh noirer than Noir
